♥ a mother's love
today is mother's day.
despite having lots of uni work and assignments to do, we did have family lunch together. excluding my sister of course, who's in europe.
i think i will never be able to express how fortunate i am to have my mother... as much as i may try through my cards or costly gifts... it will never sum up the love she has given me all these years.
as i enter adulthood. yes. im 18 now. it doesn't mean that i leave my parents. yes, i have more responsibility as legally i am no longer a child... but my parents are still a big part of my life.
and they will continue to be. until i get married. and become a mother myself.
i will struggle as all mothers do. i will love my child unconditionally, as my mother loves me. i will sacrifice things for my child... teach my child... pray for my child... sing to my child (oh i hope he/she doesnt cry when i do).... hug my child... protect my child.
but there will be times where i will see my child get hurt. where i have to correct my child. where i may even shout or yell at my child. times where i will fight with my child. times where he/she will break my heart... times where they will disappoint me. hurt me. hate me.
but i will love them unconditionally.
because thats a mother's love.
